I understood it was a hub that never received proper maintenance which was confirmed when you say what your so called "maintenance" is.

I am sure your tale will be a good lessons learned for other people on the forum even if it hasn't taught you a thing.
Baloney.
You can both hear and feel a dry or failing bearing LONG before seeing it. If you are using your eyes on a bearing then you are the one with the questionable maintenance techniques, not me.

This is hilarious!

And how did that work out for you on the side of the road dumping water on a hub with failed bearings?

Just because I had a breakdown on the side of the road doesn't mean "no maintenance". That's just you making a wild and unsubstantiated guesses based on a misunderstood picture.

Bearings fail for several different reasons. Indeed cheap bearings fail faster than high quality ones. Why is that? I'll give you a hint... it has nothing to do with maintenance.

Is that your preventive maintenance routine?
You can't read?

Come on man, tell the truth....
Did you really come back here after 3 or 4 days of silence in this thread because you are truly interested, or are you bored and looking for something to do? My guess is the latter.

You have made it clear that you do not believe in my maintenance routine and that I am a major trailer abuser who probably yells at my bearings and kicks them down every chance I can get. You believe an intervention should take place because I and my trailer need.... "saving".... and you sign on with this latest post at 12:24 am on a Sunday morning (as noted by the post time stamp) to start this all up again.... because I am the one who has issues.

Go be with your family or something.

WOW Bob you got some serious issues!

First of all I can read.
I'm 62 with a bunch of health issues so I don't get much normal sleep.
I also don't visit this forum everyday as I have more important things to do.
I asked that question because I was trying to understand fully and make sure.

If in fact that is your PM routine then you don't understand what PM actually is.
When feeling and listening for something not right then the problem already exists. If you then fix and address the issue all you're doing is post postponing a failure. Unless you replace the bearing, races and seals. PM by adding fresh grease at regular intervals would more than likely of prevented you from hearing or feeling something going wrong.

Hopefully you change your vehicle engine oil before you hear or feel something going wrong.

Since you feel I chimed back in just to start up more crap this will be my last post. I won't even check this thread for anymore more replies.

We'll just say you have your mind made up on how you want to do things and are not willing to take suggestions or advice from other.

Peace, I'm out...
